Sims 4 keeps getting stuck on the loading screen
Hello, I was able to play The Sims4 normally until a few days ago. However, starting two days ago, whenever I try to play a my sim family by clicking on a lot, the game gets stuck on the loading screen and I can't access the gameplay. I've already tried the following steps to fix the issue: Deleted the localthumbcache.package file. Replaced the Resource.cfg file. Moved the Mc Command Center (MCCC) mod to a different location temporarily. Repaired The Sims 4. Even after these steps, the issue persists. I can reach the main menu and the map/lobby screen just fine, but as soon as I click on a lot or play game to enter the game, it gets stuck in the loading screen indefinitel. What can I do to resolve this issueMy game won’t launch after the 3/17/26 update
Help! After updating my game on 3/17/26, my game won’t even launch. And if it does decide to launch, it won’t allow me to save, play, or exit the game without force quitting. I do not play with any mods or custom content, and repairing the game did not work. What should I do?SolvedSims 4 not playable after the royalty and legacy expansion
Since purchasing the Sims 4 royalty and legacy expansion pack, my Sims 4 no longer functions. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled it, cleared the cache, deleted all my game saves, and I'm now playing on the lowest graphics settings, yet my game still freezes constantly. This is extremely frustrating because this game is so expensive with all the expansions, and now it has been rendered unplayable. I have now placed all my hopes in the new patch from February 19, 2026 (7.1 GB), but the problem has not been fixed. It is frustrating. I play without mods or CC. I play on PC with the EA App. I just want to play my 100 Baby Challenge :'( XD[AA] Custom getaways not working
The preset getaways in Adventure Awaits work (like the kids outdoor camp) but when I make a custom venue and then have my sim create a getaway, it takes ages to load and then it hasn’t worked and my sim is still on their home lot, or the whole game crashes. I’ve tried this many times now, and it hasn’t worked once. This was the part of the game I was most excited for, so I’m disappointed that this fairly key part of the game doesn’t work or crashes the whole game.Endless loading screen when sims travel
After the latest update, when sims travel, sometimes, not always, the loading screen seems to be stuck with it sitting for many long minutes and never ending. I left it on for a half an hour and it did not end. The only solution is to force quit the program, losing progress along the way. This seemed to have been resolved a year or so ago, but it is happening again. I have most of the packs, but not Enchanted by Nature. I have the two latest kits installed along with the most recent update. I have version 1.117.227.1230 and run the Sims on a Mac with Sequoia 15.6.1.How to stop the Grim Reaper Challenge?
I accidentally started and made my game excessively slow and I can’t play, I need to wait +2 minutes to do anything, my socializations keep being deleted and is stressing me out. I’m not having any fun. I don’t have any mods. Only expansions the game was fine until this challenge startedSolved[LD] Reaper: Can't enter workplace lot
I apologize for using a translator to describe my issue as a non-native English speaker. After purchasing this DLC, I normally played the game and explored the Reaper profession content. One day, while visiting other locations, I loaded into the profession, and shortly after, the game crashed. Since then, I have been unable to enter the Reaper's workplace.Here are the operations I have tried so far: (1) Disconnecting Steam and EA and then entering the game. (2) Removing all Mods and CCs, along with contents from the save files and tray folder. (3) Uninstalling the game downloaded from Steam and reinstalling it. (4) Deleting all generated cache files. (5) Using the client to verify the integrity of the game files. (6) According to the explanation from the Last Exception website, the error occurred due to the inability to read contents from the specific DLC. I have searched the community for related issues but did not find similar problems and their solutions. I did not add any new mods during my gameplay, so I believe there may be an issue with the game map itself, but I am not sure how to fix it.The error message from MCCC indicates the following two statements: [cjiang] Error occurred within the tag named 'final_product' (value: U) (UnavailablePackSafeResourceError), CategoryID: definition_manager:324 [manus] Exception while finishing tuning for catdevpete:gothic_recipe_Drink_Brewed_Tea_Teaset_Black_English4. (UnavailablePackSafeResourceError), Category ID: definition_manager:324. Additionally, I will attach the game's error report. As starting a new game and save does not resolve this issue, it affects my ability to play this newly purchased DLC. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help resolve this issue.

Hello. Whenever I am trying to enter any household for one of my saves, it starts for like 1-2 seconds to enter, but I am then immediately tossed back to choose a neighborhood. It doesn't matter what family it the saved file I try to enter, the same thing keeps happening. I have tried to do a repair several times, but the problem continues. I have tried to remove all my Mods and such, but the problem continues. I have created new gameplays where the problem is gone, but my Main gameplay remains unplayable 😞 I have waited for MONTHS to see if any new updates would have made the problem disappear, but alas, the problem remains. I have a new computer, and the lagging that was a problem as well has stopped, but I can still NOT enter my household. So it's not an issue with the computer not being strong enough to handle the save. What can I do? How do I remove the problem without having to start all over again? I have spent a long time building the generations.SolvedThe game is unplayable
In both old saves and new, the game breaks, and I can't play the game properly. I even tried with mods disabled. So I can start up a new game just fine, but once I start playing and interacting with the different tabs like the career or social tabs, the game bugs out, and the only thing I can do is build in build mode and move the camera around. Even the options get locked out, and I have to force shut down the game from outside by resetting my pc. Another thing that happens is that my first selected sim becomes somewhat unselectable after interacting around a bit, and the double beds won't let two sims sleep together.The new update messed up my game.
